Dwork began designing for Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Cohen in 1962 while he was at Yale-Burge. Dwork considered the Cohen residence at King's Point his largest residential project, spanning over five decades. According to Dwork, the black and white prints by Peter Fink were made approximately six months after the color photographs of the Cohens' Olympic Tower apartment. Dwork also designed a pool house for these clients. The Olympic Tower was built in 1973, and Dwork was involved with design from the beginning.

Architect Harry Bates (Bates Architects, Sag Harbor, New York) built this weekend house for Dwork in 1967. He was the first and only occupant when these photographs were taken.

In the late 1980s, Dwork sold his Fire Island weekend house and purchased a small one-room cottage on Shelter Island, which he later expanded.
